News from the Dominican Republic - Sunday, January 28, 2007

We joined Los Girolas for church on Sunday, and while we didn't understand many of the words, it was clear that the Dominicans loved the Lord and His name was praised.  After church, we went back to the Vallette's for lunch and packed our bags for the beach.  The bus ride was 1.5 hours to go about 30 miles over the mountains, but the view was woth it.  We spent the afternoon swimming in the surf and had a few pizzas on the sand for dinner.
One amazing way God worked today was when Carol Light got swamped by a wave.  She lost here ONLY pair of glasses in the water.  We searched and searched and then about 10 minutes later, Bob found them by almost stepping in them!  Talk about finding a needle in a haystack!

We're back at the house now and there is a wild game of dominos going on out under the veranda.  Tomorrow we will be starting our devotional time together, so check out that section of the web and join us.  Tomorrow will also be work day #1.  Most of the team will head over to the church to start laying block while Bob will be taking care of some projects around the Vallette's to help them get a few plumbing problems squared away.

Please pray for safety as we work tomorrow.  God has blessed us with good health...keep up those prayers!
